DISCOVER ONE OF CAYMAN’S AMAZING TREASURES

div-3

Strange as it may seem, there is really a place called “Hell” in Cayman’s paradise.

Located in the district of West Bay on Grand Cayman, Hell is a unique natural wonder of rugged blackened limestone outcropping. The jagged formations are a result of millions of years of geological evolution, due to acid rain and consumption of the rock by carbonate-loving organisms. This erosion has left an eerie and desolate looking landscape earning this location its highly appropriate name. The rocks are estimated to be 10 to 15 million years old.

Visitors have been flocking here for decades, for bragging rights that they have “been to Hell and back” or have simply taken someone’s advice to “go to Hell!”

Naturally, the ‘Devil’ roams at Hell and no visit is complete without a photo taken with him, you may also catch a glimpse of an “Angel” while on site.

A postcard dispatched from Hell Post Office is also a good way to share a memorable visit to this site.

Hell is located on lands owned by the Cayman Islands Government, as well as on adjoining areas, which are privately owned and offers a similar experience.

We decided to Bike to Hell....literally. Its a place of a few small cafe's, some tourist attractions and residential houses. The outlaying shoreline of Hell has these cool looking "jagged" rock formations. It took us about 5-6hrs to visit from Georgetown to Hell and back. Great time. We did visit a small resturant - called Alfresco Restuarant, a very small place overlooking the ocean. The food service was slow.....but is Island time, no hurry. We enjoyed a some fruity drinks and beer. I recommend this place.
    As far as the Bicycles - they are simple and easy to use pedals and comfortable seats. Anyone can ride them. Just beware on some of the streets - they are narrow and cars/vans almost glance off you as they go by. The island people are extremely friendly. Go exploring - we met a great guy with a story about growing up on the island. cool stuff....can't wait to go back to Grand Cayman. Its not cheap though...

    We loved it. Good pictures of very odd rock formations. We loved the gift shop all painted in blood red.... read more It was really cool. When we walked in the first thing we saw was an elderly gentleman, maybe in his late 80s in a devil's outfit who said, welcome to hell. We started looking around and the little devil said what the hell are you looking to buy. Then a voice from the back said what the hell can I do for you. It went on for awhile. We couldn't help ourselves, we had to get pictures with the devil and send postcards to family back home as well as buy a shirt.

    The black limestone "hellish" rocks in the back do look other worldly. There was a gentleman out there to explain how it formed. An empty club behind the post office was opened by Bob Marley!
